sUNDAY 8th jUNE
You need to eat…..because your hangover is subsiding and you need some comfort in eating. In order to replenish your vitals head down to Los Pilones, a fine Mexcian restaurant (Kerkstraat 63 & Anjeliersdwarsstraat 6). This colourful place is run by 3 Mexican brothers, one of which is the chef, so expect traditional and beautiful dishes. They also have one of the largest Tequila collections I have seen in Europe. This place is quality!! Dishes Euros 11-19
The cinema, try not to fall asleep to…’Be Kind Rewind’ at The Movies (Haarlemmerdijk 157-165). A wonderful cinema steeped in tradition, small cozy zaals, good food and drink. Old reel format screenings. Not too mention the extraordinary décor! A nice evening and possibly a stupid ass film to boot. The movie stars Jack Black. Enough said.
